Platform.sh the award-winning PaaS solution from Paris, France, is looking for a Pythonian Cloud and Support Engineer with a taste for Go, good Linux system understanding and a real hunger for the challenges of building robust distributed systems.

Platform.sh support engineers regularly spin up hundres of CPUs on AWS, OpenStack, or VMWare clusters, and hand them over to customers running a variety of web applications. We help large ecommerce and publishing sites scale and succeed as they implement continuous integration and continuous deployment. Want to meet them?

We can clone whole running systems, including the state, services, and topology in a matter seconds, but we want to be able to run that on any developer’s local box. Want to help us build that?

We’ve got a build and orchestration engine that guarantees consistent code deployments on the clouds that we currently use. But we want to extend that to any cloud, even private ones. Help us roll that out.

The main API to operate and orchestrate our clusters of LXC containers is Git; our customers need onboarding and training before they can master the Platform.sh fu. Are you good at explaining technology to people?

We need to automate moreof the Puppet automation. We need to have more auto-healing on the high-availability clusters. We need more performance out of our multi-protocol ssh proxy. We need work on our CEPH Implementation;We need to get our fabulous Debian package generation streamlined and faster. We need… great ideas on how to make Platform.sh even better, and someone who can help our customers overcome the bumps in the road. Interested? Join us!

This position involves 20% engineering and 80% provisioning, onboarding, and customer support (including on-call). Preference will be given to candidates in the Asia-Pacific region.
